ThreatNG: A Unique Approach to Security and Risk Management
Unifying Security, Reputation, and ESG Risks with Threat Intelligence, Sentiment Analysis, and a Global Risk Database
Organizations face a complex digital threat landscape. External attack surfaces are expanding, regulations are evolving, and cybercriminals are constantly refining their tactics. Traditional security solutions often need help to keep pace with these ever-changing threats.
ThreatNG offers a comprehensive suite of capabilities that go beyond basic security measures. It's about empowering organizations of all sizes to take control of their digital risk. Here's how ThreatNG's core functionalities work together to provide a holistic approach:
External Attack Surface Management (EASM), Digital Risk Protection (DRP), and Security Ratings
EASM: ThreatNG discovers and monitors all internet-facing assets, including the deep and dark web, to identify potential vulnerabilities that attackers could exploit. These could include unpatched software, misconfigured servers, or weak passwords.
DRP: This proactive functionality goes beyond identifying threats; it actively hunts for malicious activity targeting your organization, such as brand impersonation, data leaks, and negative media mentions. It ensures you are always one step ahead, instilling confidence in your security measures.
Security Ratings: ThreatNG provides a data-driven assessment of your organization's security posture, helping you benchmark your performance against industry standards.
Sentiment and Financials Investigation Module
This unique module delves into more profound than just technical risk indicators. It analyzes:
Sentiment: By gauging public perception through social media listening and news monitoring, you can identify potential reputational risks before they escalate.
Financials: Examining lawsuits, layoff chatter, SEC filings, and ESG violations can uncover hidden financial risks and operational challenges that could impact your organization's stability.
ESG Exposure Assessment and Intelligence Repository
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors, which refer to a company's environmental, social, and governance practices, are increasingly important for investors and stakeholders. ThreatNG helps you:
Assess ESG Exposure: Identify potential ESG risks associated with your operations and supply chain.
Intelligence Repository: Leverage a comprehensive database of ESG offenses and violations across various categories, including competitive practices, consumer protection, employment, and environmental impact. This could include cases of unfair competition, breaches of consumer privacy, labor law violations, or environmental pollution.
How it all Works Together
These functionalities work synergistically to provide a comprehensive 360-degree view of your organization's security posture and risk landscape. The data gathered from EASM, DRP, sentiment analysis, and financial investigations feed into your Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) framework, keeping you fully informed and aware and reassuring you about your security measures.
ThreatNG Provides a 360-degree View
ThreatNG's functionalities work together to paint a much clearer picture of your organization's security posture and risk landscape than any individual solution could achieve. Here's how the data from various modules feeds into your GRC framework:
EASM and DRP: Imagine your EASM discovers an exposed database. DRP jumps in to see if this leak is being discussed online. This combined picture indicates a potential breach that needs immediate investigation.
Sentiment Analysis and Financials Investigation: Online Internet listening picks up on growing customer frustration about a data privacy issue. Further investigations reveal a spike in online chatter about a potential class-action lawsuit related to the same problem. This combined sentiment analysis with financial risk flags a potential reputation and legal risk that requires a swift response from the PR and legal teams.
ESG Exposure Assessment and Intelligence Repository: Suppose your company is in manufacturing. The ESG assessment module identifies potential environmental risks associated with waste disposal practices. Consulting the ESG intelligence repository reveals recent regulatory changes and fines imposed on competitors for similar violations. Proactive measures can now be implemented to ensure compliance and avoid hefty fines.
Feeding the GRC Framework
All this data gathered from various ThreatNG modules is fed into your Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) framework. It allows you to:
Identify and prioritize threats: By leveraging ThreatNG's technical vulnerabilities understanding (EASM), potential for reputational damage (sentiment analysis), and regulatory risks (ESG assessment), you can prioritize threats based on their severity and potential impact, ensuring a more efficient risk management strategy.
Develop mitigation strategies: Armed with a comprehensive understanding of the risk landscape, you can craft effective plans to address security weaknesses, improve public perception, and ensure ESG compliance.
Report and demonstrate compliance: The data from ThreatNG provides auditable evidence for your GRC processes, allowing you to demonstrate your commitment to security, risk management, and regulatory compliance.
In essence, ThreatNG goes beyond just identifying threats. It provides the context and insights to make informed decisions and build a robust security and risk management posture.
Unifying Security, Reputation, and ESG Risks with Threat Intelligence, Sentiment Analysis, and a Global Risk Database
ThreatNG offers a robust suite of capabilities that work together to provide a holistic view of your organization's security posture and risk landscape. This approach moves beyond traditional security measures to encompass critical areas like brand reputation, financial risk, and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) compliance.
ThreatNG's Synergistic Approach
ThreatNG's functionalities work in concert to paint a 360-degree picture of your organization's risk profile. Here's how the various modules contribute to actionable insights for Threat Intelligence, Incident Response and Mitigation, and Risk Assessment and Reporting:
External Attack Surface Management (EASM) and Brand Damage Susceptibility
EASM continuously discovers and monitors all internet-facing assets, including your website, subdomains, and cloud storage configurations. This vigilance exposes potential vulnerabilities attackers could exploit to damage your brand reputation. For instance, if a rogue subdomain spews malware, it can be quickly identified and taken down before it tarnishes your brand image.
Digital Risk Protection (DRP), BEC & Phishing Susceptibility, Data Leak Susceptibility, and Breach & Ransomware Susceptibility
DRP actively hunts for malicious activity targeting your organization. Combined with modules that assess your susceptibility to BEC/phishing attacks, data leaks, and breaches, you understand how vulnerable you are to different attack vectors. Early detection of a phishing campaign targeting your employees, for example, allows you to take swift action to prevent a potential data breach.
Domain Intelligence and Technology Stack Investigation
This powerful module delves deep into your organization's digital footprint. It uncovers rogue subdomains, misconfigured cloud buckets, and sensitive code exposure. By identifying weaknesses in your technology stack, you can proactively address them before attackers exploit them.
Sentiment Analysis, Financials Investigation, and Brand Damage Susceptibility
ThreatNG goes beyond technical security to understand the impact of security incidents on your reputation. Social media listening gauges public perception during a crisis, while financial investigations uncover potential lawsuits or financial losses associated with the incident. This combined approach allows you to mitigate the attack's technical aspects and address the reputational and economic fallout.
ESG Exposure Assessment and Intelligence Repository
Organizations are increasingly scrutinized for environmental, social, and governance practices. ThreatNG's ESG assessment module helps you identify potential risks associated with your operations and supply chain. The ESG intelligence repository provides information on regulatory changes and violations, allowing you to implement measures to ensure compliance and avoid hefty fines proactively.
